Dear Aunt Chelsea: My therapist left me high and dry. She said she would treat me until my permanent therapist got back to work — which isn’t so. She stopped the sessions for June. This left a sour taste in my mouth. I used to trust therapists. Now, I feel they are a dime a […]

Dear Aunt Chelsea: We were all so very relieved (no pun intended) when the Poop Scoop law finally went into effect, oh so many years ago. Lately, though, I wonder whatever happened to “CURB YOUR DOG?” Is this still a law? As you know, dear Aunt Chelsea, the entire city (and Chelsea in particular) is […]

Indeed it has, my dear readers. To mark that milestone (and in the spirit of Chelsea Now’s “Progress Report”), my […]

Dear Aunt Chelsea, I have a MAJOR problem with my Chinese delivery guy. I know, I know…a girl should avoid the MSG-packed dishes — but sometimes, I just can’t help myself. I have even gone so far as to turn it into a bit of a “treat,” ordering only on Mondays (to get over those […]
